I still have 1781cc and t rated tires, and 80s mph cruising as a goal, I am from massachussetts originally, near rte 128. Insane. it even made some of my v8 cars not quick enough with the games of stampede it played. The contentment during last years fuel proces was to analagize 90hp super car to the average racing highway speeds slowing down. Beyond that, there is 2 decades keeping up with the rest of the world. The diesel accelerating slow reminds me of an 86 f-350 I used to drive. Outright frustrating, it just wouldn't move. The dangerous diesel goes to like a rabbit or jetta of old, or that vw pickup. crazy to even think of it and highway together. There are small engines doing big things besides make noise, hardly exist in gods country, but maybe engineering and braun will meet without a confrontation some decade. The old sube was close...close enough.
